Southwest Style Lettuce Wraps

What You'll Need:

- 1 lb Lean Ground Turkey
- 1 TBS Ground Cumin
- 1 Tsp Garlic Salt
- 1 Tsp Ground Pepper
- 1 Cup Salsa of your choice
- 1 (15 oz.) Can of Black Beans (drained and rinsed)
- 1 Cup Frozen Corn
- 1 Head of Butter Lettuce
- 1 Avocado (diced)
- 1 Lime (cut into wedges)
- Cilantro (optional)

Heat a skillet over medium high heat.  Add ground turkey.  As Turkey browns add cumin, garlic salt and pepper.  Break up the turkey as it browns and mix the seasonings in.  Once the turkey is browned drain any excess fat from the pan.  Add salsa, corn, and black beans to turkey and stir often.  Reduce heat and let simmer for five to ten minutes. 

Use lettuce leaves as a wrap by filling a lettuce leaf with the turkey mixture.  Top with diced avocado and cilantro.  Squeeze a lime wedge over the top and enjoy!
